Gluten free cranberry coconut scones
I have made something similar before but this version of this gluten free cranberry coconut scones is just awesome. Healthy, tasty and the best.
These gluten free cranberry coconut scones were gone in just under a day. The minute they came out I had 3 slices…bad girl. I just couldn’t resist. My kids pretty much did the same to needless to say I think I should have double the batch. Maybe next time.
While my other blueberry sconerecipe is also irresistible these are a tad different. I actually altered the original recipe and they still turned out great. I was running out of almond flour so I mixed it up with some brown rice flour and it worked perfectly.
I have gotten tons of fresh organic cranberries lately so I have tackled a few cranberry recipes in the past few days. Nothing wrong with that. I love cranberries. However,I think I need to come up with more savory cranberries recipes. I think I will do some research and come up with something unique. Baking with cranberries is great but I need to get adventurous with them.
I know I promised to post this recipe yesterday but I just couldn’t get around to it. I had a test today that I had no idea I had so my time had to be devoted studying all day yesterday. Considering the lack of time I had I did pretty good so I am happy about that. I am almost done with finals. 10 more days and then I am off to Vegas. First we have to move back into the house. A lot of things happening all at once.
Anyways, I leave you with this amazing gluten free cranberry coconut scone recipe that I hope you like. Stay safe.
Enjoy!

How about some savoury brie and cranberry cheese straws? Not sure if that’s possible but brie and cranberry go so well together in savoury foods (like rice cake sandwiches).

I’m not sure what happened to my scones. They turned out so crumbly I have to eat them with a spoon. It seems like there should have been some type of liquid in the recipe. Could it be because I used all coconut flour?

For sure. Coconut flour does not behave the same as the other flours and the quantities are not the same either when making substitutions. You have to be careful when using coconut with baking!
